Not sure what your criteria are. I’m drawing the line at works designed for people to read for fun or study as literature, leaving out short notes, legal documents, etc.
Correspondence Plaque
M. Demeaux’s Advice for Captains: Commemorative Edition
Newspaper
Voluminous Library
Volume of Collated Research
Page from the Liber Visionis
Compilation of Case Notes
Mackay’s Story (Ambition: Nemesis item)
Notes on the Case of the Speculative Arachnid
The Word of Caution, from the Fate story Flint. (Careful: I believe it’s possible to lock yourself out of it.)
Unusual Love Story
And if you want to stretch it, The Pirate-Poet and the Corresponding Ocelot.
(EDIT: Never mind these, they’re probably not written down:
Tale of Terror
Touching Love Story)
And this is just from my inventory, so I’m sure there’s more. edited by TheThirdPolice on 4/17/2016 edited by TheThirdPolice on 4/17/2016
Thank you all for your help, I’ve been wondering whether Correspondence Plaques should count, but if I included Second City relics I suppose they should. edited by IgnatuStone on 4/17/2016
On a broad definition of reading material, you can also add Meritorious/Salacious/Outlandish Copy, from your Newspaper. The Outlandish copy even has an ‘Enthralling’ quality.
